										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We&#8217;re beginning to lose count of those who, during the pandemic, flaunt their emergency power while issuing dictates on those who elected them while disregarding those mandates for their own convenience.</p>
<p>One of the latest examples comes from Montgomery County, Virginia.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">A Montgomery County School Board meeting briefly became rowdy Tuesday, prompting the elected body’s chairwoman to leave for the remainder of the night after being directly targeted by a local right wing activist over masking. Board Chairwoman Sue Kass, who just started the third year of her term and was selected to the leadership role last month, left the meeting during the midst of the regular public comments period a short time after a speaker, Alecia Vaught, held up her phone and showed what she said were Facebook photos of Kass without a mask on while in a crowd.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span>&#8211; <a href="https://roanoke.com/news/local/education/montgomery-co-school-board-chairwoman-leaves-meeting-amid-public-comments/article_a11b2afc-8f17-11ec-a4c3-77ea87ebafec.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Roanoke Times, 2/16/22</a></p>
<p>The left wing school board chairwoman took offense to parent Alecia Vaught&#8217;s presentation of pictures of Susan Kass posted on Facebook maskless at a time where masks were supposedly mandatory on school property and functions&#8230;.</p>

It appears Kass has scrubbed those inconvenient pics from her Facebook page.</p>

<span style="color: #808080;">“I volunteered to do this because I care about teachers, and I care about students,” she said.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Kass said the photos Vaught showed on her phone proved “absolutely nothing.” Kass said Tuesday was also upsetting because her father was in the hospital at the time of the meeting.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">“And I stayed here for this,” she said.</span></p>
<p>Well, no one is forcing her to stay on the school board either and hopefully, she walked out for good.</p>

										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>All the mumbling, stumbling, farting, finger-nibbling aside, this has got to be the most bizarre moment of the Joe Biden presidency.</p>
<p>In the Roosevelt Room of the White House, Biden officially announced the retirement of Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer. Near the close of the remarks, Biden performed an action that would have most mask-uppers and germophobes freaking out in sheer horror&#8230;.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" class="rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/vqt0qf/?pub=6btuj" width="750" height="422" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p>
<p>Joe Biden hands a mask to Breyer and says, &#8220;I gotta give you your mask back.&#8221;</p>
<p>The problem is Justice Breyer was already wearing his mask. Whose mask was that, Joe?</p>
<p>Yuck.</p>

Whether we&#8217;re talking their protest rallies, raves, and even presidential inaugurations on public grounds: they throw their trash everywhere except the provided receptacles, and that&#8217;s the most desirable outcome.</p>
<p>From the onset of the COVID-19 mask mandates, mostly implemented by power-tripping progressives, we&#8217;ve seen the expected result. Masks strewn on sidewalks, streets, an/or anywhere they can be discarded without the inconvenience of having to either carry it home or find a trash can.</p>
<p>However, it&#8217;s now become a health and environmental emergency&#8230;.</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" class="rumble" src="https://rumble.com/embed/vo3vkz/?pub=6btuj" width="750" height="422" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"><span data-mce-type="bookmark" style="display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;" class="mce_SELRES_start">﻿</span></iframe></p>
<p>As Laura&#8217;s pointed out numerous times, these soiled masks should be also considered bio-hazards as the collection of COVID-19 on either side of the mask is a potential health hazard.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>A study from the University of Portsmouth found mask litter increased by 9,000% in the first seven months of the pandemic and could have led to further spread of the virus.</strong> During their study, researchers discovered two million littered masks were collected across 11 counties. A government spokeswoman said it is &#8220;vital&#8221; waste is correctly disposed of. <strong>Researchers from the university believe the plastic pollution caused by face mask litter could last hundreds of years.</strong></span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">Professor Steve Fletcher, from the University of Portsmouth, said: &#8220;Without better disposal practices, an environmental disaster is looming.&#8221;</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;">The university is now calling on the government to create new policies for enforcing waste disposal.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-hampshire-59622307" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BBC, 9/11/21</a></p>
<p>Turns out she&#8217;s backed by the science.</p>
<p><img loading="lazy" decoding="async" class="alignright wp-image-20489 size-medium" src="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Mask-thumbs-up-150x142.jpg" alt="" width="150" height="142" srcset="https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Mask-thumbs-up-150x142.jpg 150w, https://www.blackandblondemedia.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/12/Mask-thumbs-up.jpg 500w" sizes="auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px" />It&#8217;s telling this study was conducted in the UK and not (yet) in the United States.</p>
<p>Imagine telling those who like to get in our faces to pick up their mask trash; many of whom who&#8217;ve had problems to this day cleaning their own room. Just ask mom. And now we&#8217;ll again see how far their sense of environmental and health justice goes against their inner pig instincts where it&#8217;s easier to just toss their fluids anywhere because someone else will pick it up.</p>

We&#8217;re told they are the go-to when it comes to any important information regarding all things COVID-19.</p>
<p>We&#8217;re also being told we MUST where masks when it comes to legally entering businesses; we say &#8220;legally&#8221; because those protesting appear to have been given an exemption from social distancing and everything associated with Coronavirus protections.</p>
<p>But as hypocrisy and misinformation is always at play when we&#8217;re talking about liberals, why do we have to wear a mask to ride in an Uber or frequent a 7-Eleven when the World Health Organization told us we didn&#8217;t need to&#8230; in MARCH?</p>
<p><iframe loading="lazy" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/zV-yDdt72bw" width="560" height="315" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe></p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>If you do not have any respiratory symptoms, such as fever, cough, or runny nose, you do not need to wear a medical mask.</strong> When used alone, masks can give you a false feeling of protection and can even be a source of infection when not used correctly.</span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://youtu.be/M4olt47pr_o" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">World Health Organization, 3/9/20</a></p>
<p>And Dr. April Baller says not to reuse a mask. Hello&#8230;!?</p>
<p>That was then. Now, it&#8217;s JUNE.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 40px;"><span style="color: #808080;"><strong>In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic, many individuals are curious about the proper use of fabric masks.</strong></span><br />
<span style="color: #808080;">&#8212;</span> <a href="https://youtu.be/ciUniZGD4tY" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">World Health Organization, 6/5/20</a></p>
<p>If everything the World Health Organization is the absolute final word, WHY are we still being told to wear masks when they say it&#8217;s not necessary, especially when they can&#8217;t even make up their minds?</p>

That is the rule and that is the regulation and they have to comply with that,”</strong> Cuomo said during his daily briefing in Albany.</span><br />

<p>New York Governor Andrew Cuomo&#8217;s &#8220;rule&#8221; had deadly consequences.</p>

<p>Governor Andrew Cuomo is now forcing businesses to deny service in New York City to anyone not wearing a mask. Did he think including Brooklyn residents Chris Rock and Rosie Perez in his daily presser would take the sting out his new mandate?</p>
<p>On <a href="https://www.governor.ny.gov/news/amid-ongoing-covid-19-pandemic-governor-cuomo-issues-executive-order-authorizing-businesses" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">the governor&#8217;s website</a>, the YouTube video of the press conference is embedded. However, the media Q&amp;A which immediately followed was <a href="https://youtu.be/Ay_R2fgQd8Y?t=2010" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">abruptly edited out</a> to prevent public viewing and for good reason.</p>
<p>We present the end of the omitted Q&amp;A segment&#8230;.</p>

<p>Did he really think laughing about another possible Coronavirus death was apropos? Meanwhile, his paraphrasing of the comments of a student on spring break was a tad embellished.</p>
<p>Obviously, someone in the governor&#8217;s office realized that few would laugh with Cuomo&#8217;s reaction to Chris Rock&#8217;s brand of morbid humor. Could be one reason why so many didn&#8217;t want New Yorkers fleeing COVID-19 into their states.</p>
<h2><span style="color: #ff9900;">FACT CHECK</span></h2>
<p>There is no indication that spring break partygoer Brady Sluder has died. He <em>was</em> shamed into <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/24/us/coronavirus-brady-sluder-spring-break.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">issuing a public apology</a>.</p>

<p>She took an opportunity during a May 15, 2020 White House Rose Garden event to ask President Trump on why some in his administration wear them and why some do not. One would think someone so concerned about holding the Administration consistent with regards to social distance policy and masks would be observant herself.</p>

<p>Must have been because she got an &#8220;all clear&#8221; and thought the camera feed was turned off.</p>
